Subject: HEAT TRICK?Straightening 1020 8 inch center pipe with heat? HOW TO?


just a tish NE of central ND
That darn wind and snow of last winter is the gift that just keeps on giving.......IT bent my finger reel 8 inch center tube down in the center of my 1020 header.
So far I have pulled with a come along in the center and it gives some, but not nearly enough. You cant feel or see any Krincles and appears to be bent/curved/ about exactly in the center and extended.
What is the trick where applied heat will pull and straighten the tube again? Ive read about it, heard about it, but never had to try it before.I have even heard of sunlight pulling auger tube.....
So does it work?
So where do you heat and how big, how hot and which side?Accetelene torch big enough area for a pipe that big?
Instructions please?
